  • 144: How Betrayal Trauma Rewrites Your Body's Literal Chemistry

    144: How Betrayal Trauma Rewrites Your Body's Literal Chemistry
    Jan 30 2026
    In this episode, I sit down with Elizabeth Scarcella to explore why you might still feel physically depleted even after doing deep emotional and nervous system work. We unpack the biochemistry of betrayal trauma: how cortisol floods your system like a firefighter that won't stop spraying water, dampening your thyroid, draining your progesterone, and throwing your entire hormone cascade into chaos. Elizabeth shares her own story of navigating betrayal while discovering that true healing requires addressing both nervous system regulation and hormonal harmony. ✨ Topics Covered ➡️ The cell danger response and why your body stays in defense mode long after trauma ends ➡️ How chronic cortisol creates a domino effect that impacts thyroid, progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, and insulin ➡️ Real-world signs your body is still biochemically stuck in survival mode (sleep issues, brain fog, inflammation, low libido) ➡️ Why emotional healing alone can't restore hormonal balance—and what's missing from most recovery approaches ➡️ A trauma-informed, simplified approach to lab work and supplements that actually supports your nervous system ———————————————————————— Love Note From Becky Aste: I’d love to hear from you!

  • 143: Why Men Seem Avoidant & Lessons About Male Shame

    143: Why Men Seem Avoidant & Lessons About Male Shame
    Jan 23 2026
    This week, I'm joined by Christina Lane to talk about something that keeps so many of us stuck: what happens when love has hurt us so deeply that our bodies literally can't tell the difference between intimacy and danger anymore. We explored how triggers aren't proof that something's wrong with us; they're actually invitations for deeper connection if we know how to work with them. Christina shared why men aren't actually "avoidant" (they're just terrified in a different way than we are), how sitting in discomfort beats solution-hunting every time, and what it really takes to rebuild safety after betrayal. ✨ Topics Covered ➡️ Why love is inherently painful and how to get comfortable with emotional discomfort ➡️ The real reason men shut down (and why labeling them "avoidant" makes everything worse) ➡️ How to tell the difference between a present-moment trigger and an old wound replaying ➡️ Co-creating safety through somatic rituals instead of perpetual compromise ➡️ Why your body, not your mind, gets the final say on whether intimacy feels safe again ———————————————————————— Love Note From Becky Aste: I’d love to hear from you!

    142: Caregiving: Love, Guilt, and the Thoughts We’re Afraid to Admit Out Loud…
    Jan 16 2026
    I've talked about my mom's Alzheimer's journey on the podcast before, but today I wanted to shine a light on the side of caregiving no one talks about—the guilt, the resentment, the dark thoughts that make you wonder if you're a terrible person. My friend and personal caregiving coach Erin Antroinen joined me to normalize the feelings caregivers are afraid to admit, from wishing it would end faster to jealousy when other people's parents pass away quickly. We're getting real about the emotional chaos, the sibling dynamics, the financial awkwardness, and most importantly, how to find those tiny moments of peace when you feel like you're drowning. ✨ Topics Covered ➡️ The dark thoughts caregivers have but are afraid to say out loud ➡️ Navigating guilt, resentment, and the "not enough" spiral ➡️ Why your loved one's confusion or regression isn't suffering the way you think it is ➡️ Micro-moments of self-care when you have zero capacity left ➡️ Finding compassion for yourself in the hardest season of your life ———————————————————————— Love Note From Becky Aste: Still Face Baby Experiment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTTSXc6sARg I’d love to hear from you!

    141: The Avoidant Side of Attachment
    Jan 9 2026
    In this episode, I sit down with Rossana, a past Root to Rise client who represents the often misunderstood avoidant attachment style. We dive into her transformation from shutdown and disconnection to being able to stay present in her relationship, and she shares the specific somatic tools that helped her body feel safe enough to finally process grief. Rossana offers hope that you don't need to wait until you hit rock bottom to get support—you can start your healing journey right now. ✨ Topics Covered ➡️ Understanding avoidant attachment and the internal battle of wanting connection while feeling overwhelmed by it ➡️ How unprocessed grief blocks your ability to experience joy and stay open-hearted ➡️ Simple somatic tools that create safety in the body (hand on heart, box breathing, body scans) ➡️ Why you don't need to reach rock bottom before getting help for your relationship ➡️ How to talk to the tense parts of your body to release stored emotions and pain ———————————————————————— Love Note From Becky Aste: I’d love to hear from you!

    139: Your Kid Isn’t the Problem: What Holiday Break Reveals About You (Not Them)
    Dec 26 2025
    I had such a powerful conversation with Becky Alfred about something that's been hitting me hard lately - the moments when my kids trigger me the most are actually showing me the parts of myself that need healing. We dove into why our children aren't problems to fix, but mirrors reflecting back what we weren't allowed to be or express as kids. This episode completely reframed how I think about conflict, repair, and what it really means to break generational patterns. ✨ Topics Covered ➡️ Why your kids' biggest triggers reveal your own childhood wounds ➡️ The difference between anxious and secure attachment in handling conflict ➡️ How to repair after losing your cool (and why it's the secret sauce) ➡️ Rethinking sibling fights as practice opportunities instead of problems ➡️ The CAPS framework for showing up as the parent your kids need ———————————————————————— Love Note From Becky Aste: I’d love to hear from you!

    138: When Your Body Holds What Words Can't Say
    Dec 19 2025
    I recently had the honor of being interviewed by Jessica Hoogendoorn in her wellness community, and this conversation touched me deeply—it was my first appointment after my mom passed. In this episode, I'm sharing how somatic healing helped me rescue my marriage, regulate my nervous system, and finally learn to speak my truth in a way that healed even my physical body. If you've tried everything and still feel stuck, this might be the missing piece. ✨ Topics Covered ➡️ Why 93% of communication is nonverbal and how your nervous system affects every conversation ➡️ The connection between throat issues, thyroid problems, and suppressed truth ➡️ How perfectionism and people-pleasing keep high-achievers trapped in survival mode ➡️ Recognizing when your body's symptoms are messengers, not threats ➡️ Why you can't hear your intuition when your nervous system is dysregulated ———————————————————————— Love Note From Becky Aste: To listen to the full conversation of this episode, go to Jessica's FB group - posted on December 9 - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1542545227191844/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBT I’d love to hear from you!
